New Features for Quip Spreadsheets

We designed Quip Spreadsheets to be a completely different approach to a familiar product: integrated, collaborative, and easy to edit on any device.

Based on feedback from people who have been using Quip Spreadsheets since launch, we've added a bunch of new features to make the experience simpler and more powerful.

Mentions and Images in Cells

You can now @-mention people and documents within any spreadsheet cell. When you @-mention someone in a spreadsheet, they'll get a notification, which makes spreadsheets a great project management tool. For example, check out the employee work schedule below: With @-mentions, employees are notified when they're scheduled to work a shift.

It's also now possible to insert images into cells, which makes spreadsheets an effective tool for an employee directory or a product inventory.

Expanded Paste Options

There are several new paste options available in Quip Spreadsheets. When you paste data into a spreadsheet, a paste menu will appear in the toolbar. You can then select from a list of options which include: transposing data from row to column (or vice versa), paste values only to carry over the result of a calculation without the formula, or link cells which enables you to use the paste option to carry over all the properties of the copied cell into a different table.

Keyboard Shortcuts

We added a bunch of keyboard shortcuts to help you work faster. The new ones include:

(⌘ = Ctrl on Windows)

⌘-←, ⌘-→ , ⌘-↑, ⌘-↓ — Move to edge of the section

⌘-Shift-←, ⌘-Shift-→ , ⌘-Shift-↑, ⌘-Shift-↓ — Expand the selection to the edge of the section
